Course contents:

Systematic development of new elements in Classical dance in the 6th year to which we add some important new elements of the 7th and 8th year. We focus on the mastery and understanding of the most demanding elements and phrases in the final phase of instruction. Even though new elements are explained and, at the beginning, executed in simple forms, the subsequent combinations and phrases are much more complex, choreographically diverse and technically demanding. Our aim is the training of a new instructor and not performer. However, one's own practice and experience can be used by the instructor professionally.

An emphasis is placed on practicing all types of pirouettes and grand pirouttes and grand adagios. Work with arms and head is developed and particular attention is paid to movement dynamics when in the final phase is considers fundamental for future artistic performance.

We begin working at a very fast tempo, however, we may not neglect clean execution.
